Question
In swine, when a pure-breeding red is crossed to a pure-breeding white, the F1 are all red. However,
the F2 shows 9/16 red, 1/16 white, and 6/16 as a new color, sandy. A particular red individual (Parent
1) is crossed to a particular sandy individual (Parent 2), and the progeny is comprised of four sandy,
three red, and one whitepiglets. What arethe most likely genotypesof the two parents?Assume any
genes involved are sorting independently and complete dominance relationships between two alleles of
a gene.
